Howland was committed from Watco county about two years azo, hav ing been convicted of the crime of larceny by bailee, and sentenced to serve eighteen months. Efforts were made in hli behalf, and, after he bad served eleven months, his sentence was com muted by Gov. W. P. Lord. Since se curing his liberty he has led an upright life and, as he desired to be reetored to citizenship so as to enable him to prove Up on a homestead, friends interested themselves in bis case, and urged the Go and hear what our boys did, and how they acted under fire.. : It the ladies want to see tbe very newest thing In street hats and some of the very nobbiest and most stylish trim me 1 hats, they can do so bv cillinst at Mrs. Phillips' store this evening.

U.K. Hawk. At the close of the cere mony a wedding supper was eerved and a general good time enjoyed by the most intimate friends of the bride and groom. The nights are beginning to feel wintry and Jack Frost will soon arrive to take op his winter quartets , here. He visited Tygh Valley night before last and bit the garden ' truck, but not so bard that much damage was done, for" most of the mom tender vegetables had al ready been gathered. One week from today at I) o'clock a.' m., the marriage 6f Miss Lorene Lee, daughter of J. D. Lee, superintendent of the state penitentiary, and C. H.

Any ladies who may desire to take up study along this line are Invited to be present from 7 till 8 o'clock this evening. -- Our public schools now number 741 pupils, an Increase of 61 over the first day's attendance. The Increase since the opening day tiasr not been so marked M in former years, from the fact that the bid weather caused most everyone to return home from summer iu tings before school opened. j ? 1 V ' Herbert Henry Payne, who died at hi" ht'iei' home, In Portland, went to ManiU as a member of ompany G, 8tc ond Oregon, and owing to rp:aurr, con tracted (he cold which caused' his death from quick consumption.

Again today tbe elements were "agin 'em" and tbe race declared off. There are rumors that a change in the time card of the O. R. & N. trains will go into effect tn tbe loth of this month. What the changes will be Las uut ct been made known. 'A social dancing party will be given by the Rathbone Sisters this evening at thfir ball.'

' ' ' "Mr. Wbealdon is determined that the mines of our section of Oregon shall not be slighted, so took with him to Spokane samples of the ' splendid John Day ountry ore, which ate being exhibited there at the exposition. The Thirty-fifth regiiiient embarked last evening'at Portland for the Philip pines. While the enthusiasm was not so great aa that displayed when the volunteers left, they were given a rous ing send-off and crowds thronged the streets nnf along the route of the parade, and much favorable comment was heard concerning the appearance of tbe soldier boys. Among the eight applicants In the su preme ourt Tuesday for admission to the bar, and who were examined as to their knowledge of the law, was Forrest 8. FUher, of this city. Forrest is a most worth young man, and if he carries the same sest Into the practice of law, which he baa displayed in all other nnderiak lng, he cannot fall to make a success of his profession. 1 At the request of a large number of the members of the club the band will reneat the concert given at the school yard Inst Sunday, tomorrow evening at the club. We understand that the Indies who frequent the club are especially inu!iai in im nreaent and entoy uie music. Friday evening is the regular time for rehearsal and this will take Its place. Gov. T. T.

'' What a relief it is to see a force of men at work cleaning up our streets. It would be more satisfactory, however, if we could ieel that the effects of their labors would be seen for at least a few days. In other words that the business houses would see fit to dq their port in keeping them In a respectable condition ; but it's the same thing over again, and no sooner are they cleaned up than all sorts of refuse cover them In a few days. 0. C. Yocum, of Government Camp on Mt. Hood, Is making his first visit in Portland in five years. He is now build ing a two and a half story hotel at the camp containing 16 rooms, and has the outside about finished, and will amuse himeelf finishing the inside this winter. He sajS the snow covers his house to a depth of fourteen feet sometimes, but tbe cold is not intense, tbe thermometer last winter ndt going lower than IS degrees below zero. One thing The Dalles has long been in need ol is a singing class, where old and young will have an opportunity to learn to read music and obtain the drill so necessary to successful tinging. Prof. Lundell baa organized a class among the ladies which will cover that want', and will meet once- a week at the home of Dr. Rinebart. Tbe charges are very reasonable - and will admit of anyone taking lessons. A number have already joined, but parents should arrange to have their daughters - who have good voices, but no training, attend and re ceive tbe benefit derived: ' " ' '' Tbe recorder of Temple' lodge No. 3, A. O. XT. W., informs us that thelrlodge recently received a set of beautiful screens for what la called the "screen work" in their ritualistic ixercisee, and have secured 'a valuable lantern with Which to show them. The screens were a present from D. C. Herrin, Grand Master Workman for Oregon. The lodge has work in the Workman degree this evening at 7:30, and alt members Who fail to attend will miss seeing one of the finest things in tbe state. It is to be regretted that it comes on the same night as the lecture by Capt. Wells, as all want to go and hear him, but promptness will make it possible to attend both. Friday's Dally. Geo. Prather, of Hood River, is now a notary public. Deeds were recorded in the clerk's of fice today conveying from Maximilian Vogt and Philippine Chapman to the Very Rev. ' Adelhelm Odertnatt, two large and valuable tracts of land, one situated in Crate's Donation Land C'aim and the other on lower 15-Mile. ' Doug. Langitle came down to Hood J River from Cloud Cap Inn last Sunday evening. He said the late storm was quite severe on the mountain. Snow fell to the depth of eight Inches on the level, and the wind piled it up In great drifts about the hotel. Tl e Inn will soon cloie lor the season. Tomorrow at her home in Weieer, Idaho, will tccur the marriage of Mies Verne Lytle to Mr. Cattron, who is engaged in buying wheat at Wasco. On Sunday thev will return ta Watco, w here they will make their future home.

Harris wag pastor of tbe Congregational church here in 1877. A whole coachload of attorneys went uptoMoroon tbe Columbia Southern Sunday evening. Circuit court business being railroaded through with Judge Bradshaw's usual time-saving ingenuity, they returned Tuesday noon to The Dalles. ' For quickness In matters judi cial the judge Is without an tqual In this t ite. He onght to be in Dakota. Wasco News. We must apologize to our lady read ers for promising them a treat which will not be realized. Through a misun derstanding we were led to believe that the ladies would be admitted to I' e club tonight to enjoy the music by the band; but su -h is not the case. Tbe ladies, however, understand from past experience the kindly feeling which the members have for thsm, and may Le assured tbey will have many opportu nities to enjoy - the music during the winter. About thirty couples enjoyed t' 9 hospitality of the Rathbone Sisters I:' ; night at their hall, dancing being the order of the evening. At 9:30 Birgteld struck up a favorite waltz, and from that on until after midnight the"maz' occupied tbe attention of all. Tbe f oor might be said to have been "pretty slick," but anything must be slick to be appreciated by Dalles people and only made the amusement the more lively. These parties are always greatly ap preciated by those who are fortunate enough to be invited, and it is to be hoped many more will be given this year. The apportionment of state school funds for 1899, as will be seen in another column, is $1.51 per capita, as compared with $1.20 for 1898. This is probabiy the highest apportionment the state has ever sent out. Under the school law that went into effect May 22nd, sch 4 boards cannot have more than $50 sur plus school funds on hand at the close of the school year, the first Monday in March. A few schools in the county have contracted with their teacher for each length of time as the public funds would justify. The unusually large ap portionment sent out yesterday will materially aid them 'in the length of terms. "" ' Any who take notice certain! v have regretted that a place, which at ve all ottjers should be kept in a neat condi tion, is made a dumping ground for city trash of all sort, as is the beach along our grand Columbia. It must mar the grandeur of the river to tonrists, who of necessity must gaze on all such debris as they wander to the dock or other places to view the much-talked-of stream. Beside, we w ho are compelled to see it every day are none the less dis gusted at the prospect. Now, this can be avoided, and whai's more, should be stopped. Citizms should e made to burn all refuse, or a dumping ground should be chosen in some less promi nent place where everything so objec tionable could be burled from the gaze of passers bv.

Wasco county is Included In the eastern division and programs for the meeting have been sent to all teachers. It is not, however, likely that many teachers from onr county will attend, the distauce being much greater than to 6alem, where the western division meets, and the expense so great. Then, too, the date of meet ing is not so convenient for attendance as that of the later, which will be heM during vacation week. Judging from the excellence of the program any who may find it convenient to attend cannot fail to enjoy themselves and be benefited thereby. OREGON IN THE: PHILIPPINES- Capt.

The former will meet In La Grande Novem- As Is usual in The Dalles everything comes at once, and so last night on tbe oc casion of Capt. Wells' lecture there were several other attractions on band. But in spite of this fact, the brave captain of Company L was greeted by a large au dience, perhaps as large as ever greeted a lecturer in The Dalles. His was an exceptional subject, however, appealing to the sympathies and patriotism of all, and so when the speaker stepped on the stage at the Vogt be received loud ap plause.' A screen bad been stretched across the stage, which was, however, scarcely large enough to show the views from the stereopticon in their entirety, and for the first time since the captain started to give bis lectures, the machine caueed some trouble, making a poition of the pictures indistinct, though some cf them were beautiful. The views which he carries are certainly well chosen and very interesting. Beginning with a picture of our own company takin In front of tbe club rooms the day they left Tbe Dalles, tbe series illustrated every step through the campaign, making his talk very real and giving all a more lucid Idea of what our soldiers passed through. If any had an Idea that the Oregon volunteers had an easy time, they uuBt bave changed their minds after seeing views taken as they waded rivers, marshes; thickets and rice fields and stood in the thickest of the fray. Many times deafening cheers were given aa heroes and thrilling scenes were displayed.' -' - Although not a fluent orator, Capt. Wells is an unassuming speaker, and tells of tbeir experiences in just such a simple manner as one Wants to hear to understand and appreciate his subject, taking no credit to himself, although wc all know of his career, but giving onr own boys their share of deserved praise. The last view thrown upon the screen was perhaps the most clearly cut and to the eyes of all Oregonians, certainly the most beautiful, for while other scenes were most interesting, this we could claim as our own, a legacy from Nature and one which was obtained without bloodshed or war. We refer to Clifford's view of Mt. Hood, which cannot be ex celled. At the opening of the lecture Messrs. Landers, Nortlmp, Doano and Lundell rendered a patriotic quartet, which was S3 well received that they were com pelled to answer to an encore, when they gave "Aniiie Liurie" iu a splendid manner. Under the school laws of Oregon, which went into eff wt May 20th, 1899. the county superintendent is required to apportion the common school funds quarterly, viz:, tbe first Monday In Jan uary, April, July and October of each year, Instead of in April and August as formerly. There are 4300 children in Wasco county between the ages of four and twenty years and in the present appor tionment of funds the per capita distri bution will be $2 013, of which $151 la from the state school funds and 55 cents from the connty school funds. Total amount of state funds dietiibnted is $0502.06. Amount of county funds in the treasury $2510.91 ; amount distrib uted $2308.30; surplus on hand $142.61.
